"Breakfast at Tiffany's" has long received the status of a cult movie. In addition to the stylish and eccentric protagonist, the audience remembered the unusual apartment in which the girl lives. If you want to repeat the interior of the Holly Golightly house, use the tips described in our article.
A sofa remade from an unusual thing
One of the most memorable details in Miss Golightly’s apartment is a sofa sofa remodeled from an old bathroom. Fans of the film liked this piece of furniture so much that it was repeatedly reproduced for sale.
To make the interior of your house as bright, it is not necessary to look for an old bathtub and remodel it into a sofa. For this purpose, you can use old suitcases, a chest, construction pallets, car tires, chairs and even the bow of a wooden boat.
Calm main color, but bright little things
Most of the interior and walls in Holly's apartment have a light shade, against which pillows, carpet and other bright decor elements look especially stylish.
You can use this idea when choosing a color palette for your home, because such a design solution is suitable for many modern styles, including fusion, pop art, Scandinavian, ont art and many others. The main thing is to observe the color balance and choose shades that combine well with each other.
Down with the extra cabinets
The heroine Audrey Hepburn stored her things directly in suitcases, and not in the usual closets. This idea is easy to adapt for a modern apartment, thereby getting rid of bulky furniture, which reduces the space of the room and often spoils the flooring.
You can replace the wardrobe with a regular clothes rack, equipped with one or more bars and additional shelves, which allows you to place your entire wardrobe on it. Also, instead of a cabinet, you can use hanging rods, wall rails, beautiful boxes, chests or baskets.
Graceful bedroom
Miss Golightly’s bedroom had a bed with a metal frame and a wrought-iron headboard, covered with classic white sheets. This combination looks elegant and feminine, so it is perfect for a modern bedroom. Several bright elements, such as decorative pillows on a chair or a rug, also fit well here.
A bit of exotic
To make the interior of an apartment with a calm color scheme more unusual, use 1-2 exotic details for its decoration, but nothing more. In the house of Holly, this role was played by a rug made under the skin of a zebra. If this movie idea fits into the design of your home, use it or try something else. African masks or Chinese vases are also suitable as a bright exotic decoration.
Small white kitchen
Thanks to the white color, the kitchen in Miss Golightly’s apartment smoothly passes into the living room, which makes the home more spacious and comfortable. This design solution is suitable for modern studio apartments, as well as for small houses with small kitchenettes. In the studio, the space of the kitchen, if necessary, can be "hidden" behind a carved screen, if, for example, guests came.
The style of the apartment in which the main character of the movie “Breakfast at Tiffany's” lived, can be described as minimalism with elements of chic, which fits perfectly into modern design trends.Therefore, those who want to update their home and not spend extra money at the same time should use the tips described above.
